I'm not sure about that, actually I don't fully understand this part
yet. I didn't think about the chroot, plus I don't know how
apt-cacher-ng interact with all of that.
After applying this patch, my build succeeded, but I didn't really
witness an apt-get command failing and retrying yet. I need to do more
test. I'll check that and let you know.

Thanks for the reference, I'll take care to comment on these tickets if
needed.
